A.Z. Fell, Esq.

Congratulations on your perfect presentation!
✨️✨️✨️

How lovely!
✨️✨️✨️

Even better, it's our world... with a duck pond!!

*excited wriggle*

Good morning, darling!
I do so enjoy waking up in our own bed; only pleasant history attached.
No surreptitious sneaking about, no pretending an "accidental encounter."

Just us, being here, because we choose to be.

A cloud inversion at Devils Dyke, with vivid green hills rising above the mist under a cloudy blue sky.

Will a cloud inversion ever not look magical?

These occur when the air near the ground is cooler than the air above it.

Always, my dear.

Art is beautiful, no matter if the expected matches the end result or not.

Art is an expression of imagination through media, and that is the greatest magic in all the Universe.
💫

11:58 PM, very near the cottage:

Almost home after a spur of the moment jaunt to Soho.
I can see the lights left on in the cottage for Proust and Prism.

I refuse to let that light be dimmed for anything.
We all need someplace that glows like a waiting hug from someone you love.

Love will win.
✨️✨️✨️

11:18 PM, the Bentley:

Laden with boxes of books, wine, 3 particularly nice cheeses wrapped in cloth and two heads full of garden pond inspiration, Crowley and I are heading home to the cottage.

Soho has duly reminded us of things almost-forgotten, and our own fireside beckons.

Home by midnight.

Now, there's nothing wrong with love, is there??

Oh how delightful that would be... my favourite city neighbours could be my favourite village neighbours!
✨️✨️✨️

I would enjoy marinating in this particular moment, if you don't mind.
💫💫💫

*sighs dreamily*

Embrace your inner Aziraphale- hoard all the books📚

✨️Murphy✨️

Do you know, Crowley...

*kisses demon again*

...do you know, I simply do not understand those who dislike love?

*kisses demon's temple*

I feel very sorry for them.
And I hope they find peace.

*kisses demon's lips again*

I hope they find peace, but not at the expense of mine.

✨️❤️✨️

Just to assure you, I had a mint after lunch...

*leans in, gently touches his lips to Crowley's *

....
✨️💫☀️💫✨️

So... Crowley... may I kiss you, right here in the park, with all these ducks bearing witness?

*eyes sparkling*

Do you remember how we talked about things we wish we had done?
And how we should do them now, if possible?

Darling?
Could you do me a favour?

I'm only teasing, my dearest!

*carefully pats lips with napkin*

Well, St. James, then?
A little inspiration for the cottage pond?

*chews bread thoughtfully*

Well, I love you at least as much as I love this tandoori roti.

But this Basmati kheer might be my "bit on the side"!
Have a bite, Crowley... it's like eating a coconut milk cloud with cardamom!

2:54 PM, tiny café, Soho:

These samosas are transcendent, Crowley!
And the chaat... ooh, this is sublime. The tamarind drizzle!
This is wonderful.

And thank you for turning round and driving all the way back home because I forgot my mobile device.
I love you more than I love this tandoori roti.

*sips tea thoughtfully*

Perhaps a calming influence before a long drive would be wise?

*places now-empty teacup on bedside table*

I might need you to distract me from thoughts of whimsical pond decor.
Copper frogs with banjos, incontinent cherub fountains...

*raises eyebrow*

*accepts teacup, holds blanket aside for Crowley whilst he settles with coffee mug*
